Crosstalk reduction through wavelength assignment in WDM photonic switching networks.

Crosstalk reduction through wavelength assignment in WDM photonic switching networks.

As the deployment of wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) transmission facilities speeds up, the next step is to add cross-connects to route WDM signals. Electro-optical directional couplers (DCs) are well suited for the task since they can pass WDM signals. However, DCs suffer an intrinsic crosst...
